Year-end gathering at Philippine Arena features top entertainment, prizes, and shared success.
BULACAN, PHILIPPINES – December 7, 2024 – Cloudstaff brought together nearly 30,000 team members, families, friends, clients, and partners for Roar 2025 on December 6 at the Philippine Arena. The night was made electric by performances from P-pop stars BINI, rock legends Sponge Cola, the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra led by Maestro Rodel, and DJ Tony Toni, filling the venue with music across generations. Guests were shuttled in from multiple provinces, and global watch parties ensured all employees wherever they are in the world, could join in the joy. A standout moment came when Nell Almendares, a Back Office Specialist since May 2025, took home the grand prize—a brand new Toyota Raize car—alongside iPads, smartwatches, and cash awards totaling millions in value.
Shared Moments of Joy
Imagine your team and their loved ones swaying to BINI’s hits or cheering SpongeCola’s anthems under one roof—the world’s largest indoor arena—creating memories that strengthen bonds and fuel everyday passion. This gathering built on year-round efforts like three full days at Aqua Planet for 15,000 Cloudstaffers and families, 38 meetups from Laoag to Zamboanga, quarterly perks boxes, and CSR programs such as Make a Wish and CS Cares that support personal dreams and community giving. Live streams and watch parties connected global offices, turning distance into shared excitement.

As Lloyd Ernst, Cloudstaff CEO, shared during the event, after 15 years, “it’s working” because great staff draw great clients, who in turn inspire even more talent—adding 1,000-2,000 candidates daily via the award-winning Jobs 3.0 platform from a pool of over 1 million professionals.

A Milestone for the Community
In a heartfelt announcement, Ernst revealed a Q1 2026 ShareClub bonus of 120 million pesos, personally funded to share the value created by the team’s dedication—celebrating wins like new customers, growth in real estate, and unwavering support during challenges. “We do this because we care,” he emphasized, highlighting culture as the secret sauce that no slogan can replicate, fostering a cycle where valued teams deliver exceptional outcomes.
